Federal criminal defense with compassion

Danica was my lawyer on a federal supervised release violation case that stemmed from a friend’s poor choices while I was in the car.  His choices led to California attempting to prosecute me for a crime, and the feds coming after me for a probation violation since I was on Supervised release when th...is all happened.  Well, Danica listened to everything I had to say and she did her best to make the most of the situation.  I could tell she genuinely cared about me and getting me a fair sentence.  She always kept me updated on my case.  She even went above and beyond to contact the California case defense attorney to try to get the issues there resolved by requesting the evidence there be fingerprinted. Ultimately, she got me time served, and she even waited near the courthouse for my release.   I recommend Danica to anyone with a charge related to firearms, a federal charge, or a federal supervised release violation case.

Excellent Attorney with great compassion

My brother was arrested for federal charges of felon in possession of a firearm and conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine. He was facing decades in prison. We were all terrified. Danica is representing him, and she has gone above and beyond to make sure that my brother is safe while in custody, an...d she fights for him to get the respect and dignity that every person deserves. She takes the time to explain the status of his case, and it is clear to me that she is passionate about fighting for freedom and compassionate with her clients and their family members. I recommend Danica to anyone facing criminal charges who wants diligent and responsive counsel who will fight for freedom at every turn.

Highly recommend

I was charged with the federal crime of Smuggling/Importation. The government wanted me to do 6-12 months of jail time. I was scared, especially because my girlfriend is pregnant with a high-risk pregnancy so she is not working right now. I explained everything to Ben and Danica. They told me what... to expect, helped me through every step of the process, and when I got sentenced, I never had to do any jail time! I recommend these attorneys.

100% Everyday!

I have a federal charge for conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine. I was charged with dozens of people and was facing ten years in federal prison. I worked with Danica for three years as my case progressed. She saw that I was scared and showed compassion while also being honest about what she thou...ght would happen. She and Ben worked with the Bail Project to get me bond, so I could get out of custody on pre-trial release and go to treatment for my addiction. Over the years since then, Danica has encouraged me in my path to recovery, and kept me informed as we went through the legal proceedings. Eventually, I pled guilty and was sentenced to three years, which is about 7 less than the government initially asked from the judge. My lawyers worked with the AUSA to get me the best recommendation possible, and helped me understand each step of the process. I also got an RDAP recommendation, which should shave about 12 months off of my sentence. 10 years down to 2 is better than I could have hoped for! My lawyers truly cared about me and my future, kept me informed, were quick to respond to my inquiries, and got me a great outcome. I recommend Danica to anyone with a federal charge, a drug charge, anyone who is afraid of doing time in custody, or who wants a compassionate and fierce advocate on their side!

Ms Danica Mazenko

Ms Danica Mazenko was my attorney for a federal indictment that came down and in which I was on. Ms Mazenko was extremely gifted, professional and knowledgeable on the law. Ms. Mazenko fought hard for me and got time served as my sentence. I would refer Ms. Mazenko to all people who need an extraordi...nary attorney
